Guest jeucken Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Hi,I have a question:Is it possible to find out at what time a local user was created in Windows 2000?Because I have a user on my laptop, and I certainly never created it, so I would like to find out when it happened.

Guest jeucken Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 what is the name of this user ?No it's not the asp.net user. I'll give you some more info to explain the situation:I work at a pretty large company and the laptop is the pc I use to work there. I log on to the Windows 2000 Server domain so there should be no local users on my laptop (I have a roaming profile).But this afternoon I found a local user on my laptop and it's the username of a collegue of mine. But there is no profile directory in my document's and settings so I guess he never logged on physically on my laptop.But maybe someone created it so he could have access to my laptop one way or the other. So that's why I would like to find out when it was created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expertec Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 From http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/windows/win2...2kaccounts.htmlTo modify the user properties, right click on the user and select "Properties". User Property tabs include: * General - Set up when user must change password (User must change password at next login, User cannot change password, or password never expires) and disable the account here. Indication of account lockout is here. * Address - Set mail address or physical address information. * Account - Set hours that the user can logon during and restrict computers the user can use. * Profile - Set up the environment variables, set a network path to the user profile folder and user home folder. A logon script file can be set. Domain user logon scripts are in the NETLOGON share on the domain controller in the SystemRoot\SYSVOL\sysvol\domainname\SCRIPTS folder. The profile includes desktop settings. Default profile file location is C:\Documents and Settings\username on the computer that the user logged on to. * Telephones - Can specify the user's home, pager, mobile, and fax phone numbers. * Organization - The user title, department, manager, and company can be listed. * Member Of - Used to assign users to groups and remove users from groups. * Dial-In - Dial-in provileges can be granted or denied and callback options are set here. * Environment - (With terminal services) * Sessions - (With terminal services) * Remote Control - (With terminal services) * Terminal Services Profile - (With terminal services) * Published Certificates - Can add or remove user internet certificates. * Object - View information about the user account object such as when the account was modified last. * Security - Can set users and groups that can modify this domain user account properties.Don't know if that can help you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 When a user is created, the files for the user do not get created untill he/she logs on.It sounds like someone made a user for some reason, and then never logged on.I doubt your going to find when it was made.
